History and baseball geek. Stunned by Trumpism and how the Democratic Party lost the blue collar vote. Love and respect to first responders rather than just talking about it.

America is governed by traitors and billionaires who are only looking after their own interests.

I so informed you thusly!

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

Vermont understood the assignment. Take notes, America.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Ready Fire Aim is a lousy way to govern.

Just a reminder This is the Gulf of Mexico

If Trump voters were the only ones who had to suffer the consequences, I’d be okay with that. Unfortunately, people who voted AGAINST Trump will also be hurt when needed government services are cut, or when Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security benefits are slashed to pay for tax cuts for the rich.

Donald Trump is the dumbest President since the last time Donald Trump was President.

Trump proposes that the US take over Gaza for economic development. I can’t take this circus for another 3 years and 345 days (or so). The most nationalist president we’ve had since Harding now has us in the most unstable region ever. He’ll probably have the US put up a hotel for him to own.

Welcome to affirmative action for incompetent, morally bankrupt, sexually-assaulting ass-kissers. While distracting you with the sexist/racist lie that DEI has anything to do with lowering standards. And pretending to be Christian while desecrating the values of Jesus by spewing hatred and division.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

Trump’s tariffs are going to raise prices on American families by as much as $1200 each year. It’s absurd. I will work in the Senate to undo this mess, get costs down, and get these billionaires out of the way.

To add to this- The individuals that Trump is “firing” he has no legal right to fire. When they sue, it will be us- the taxpayers- who have to pay out- not Trump. In total, it’s going to be in the billions. This lunacy will bite us all in the ass.

@schumer.senate.gov Mr. Schumer, I will be calling your office Monday. I’ll be seeking info on what you have done regarding this orange threat to our democracy, and what I can do. We cannot take this lying down. If you are silent, you are complicit!

Had to stop in Birmingham to see the history here. Incredibly sad to see how we’re farther than ever from Dr. King’s dream. Trump must go.

Trump is an extremely dangerous man--stupid, vindictive, fixated on payback for his enemies. This country will be lucky to survive him.

I wish I had a Time Machine so I could see what historians will say about Trumps presidencies. He is already rated as 2nd worse surpassing only Andrew Johnson who was frequently drunk and did literally nothing else. History will judge.

Dear Google. I get it. Times are tough out there. Thankfully we can always rely on facts and data to help sort out the lies from the truth. You used to know that. Sadly, “googling” something no longer means looking something up. It means to show utter cowardice in the face of authority.

When Trump says he "sent the military to turn on the water" he makes it sound like water was turned off on purpose and he turned it back on at gun point. Those who vote for him are very dumb people.
